dry leaf
Kunming sample: lightly loosened, dark green leaves with a high, honeyed floral lift. Buryatia sample: tight compression, deep olive-black, aroma of old books and damp earth after a Siberian winter. Foshan sample: leaf edges browning, fragrance of plum skin and wet stone.
wet leaf
Kunming leaf opens quickly, releasing green-bean freshness; Buryatia takes two rinses to wake, unfolding leather and tobacco; Foshan shows immediate dark fruit and a roasted-grain warmth.
liquor
Kunming yields shimmering gold, bright and clean; Buryatia pours a deep amber with a mahogany rim; Foshan offers copper-orange, dense and slightly opaque.
aroma
Side by side: Kunming vibrates with green floral, Buryatia hums low woody spice, Foshan broadcasts ripe stone fruit and faint camphor.
taste
Kunming delivers a punchy, crisp bitterness that melts into sweet sugarcane; Buryatia offers a smooth, broad mouthfeel, leather and resins, almost no bite; Foshan strikes with dark cherry, brown sugar, and a gentle, rounded astringency.
finish
Kunming finish is quick, bright, with returning sweetness; Buryatia lingers long with a cooling mineral kick; Foshan leaves a stewed-fruit residue and a slow, coating huigan.
